It's Getting Scary Around Here!

Dear Parents,

The teachers have spent lots of time over the past week turning Tree House into a haunted house! We will do lots of Halloween activities in the following week.

Meanwhile, this week we spent lots of time reviewing and taking tests. The students took a vocabulary test on all of the words they have learned so far this semester. They also took their reading test. The tests will be graded very soon and I will let you know how your child did on their tests.

We read a story called "The Bear Man" in class for their take-home reader and student journal. This story is an American Indian Folk Tale about an Indian that was very kind to a lost bear cub. Most of the students are becoming more familiar and better with doing these at home.

We will have our Haunted Tree House next week so the children should start thinking about what scary things they want to be for Halloween.

Have a great weekend!

All the best,

Teacher Andy
